He graduated with a degree in Civil Engineering in 1981 and went on to complete his formal military training as a Military Engineer at CFB Chilliwack in 1982. From there, Henry’s first working tour was at CFB Edmonton, where he was employed in the Construction Engineering section as Technical Officer, Design Officer and Administration Officer. In 1983, he was posted to 1 Construction Engineering Unit in Winnipeg as a project officer for a two year stint where highlights included 10 weeks at CFS Alert, six weeks in the western arctic and a week at CFS Bermuda. In 1985, Henry moved to CFS Gypsumville where he spent the next two years as Station Construction Engineering Officer. In 1987, Capt Chan was posted to CFB Kingston as the Requirements Officer in the Construction Engineering section. In 1990, Henry was posted to CFB Gagetown and worked in the Technical Services Headquarters. In 1991, he was posted overseas with the United Nations as the Force Engineer in the Golan Heights.

In 1999, Henry was posted to 22 Wing North Bay as Wing Logistics Officer. It was during this posting that he met Susanna, and they were married in 2003. In 2002, Major Chan returned to Ottawa to work for the Chief of Air Staff as a Realty Asset advisor. As Henry has memberships at the Britannia Yacht Club, the Ottawa Curling Club and Hylands Golf Club, the only thing left to do is to find a residence close to these areas. .

You would think that those two words would put a damper on the efforts of over thirty members of 51 Aerospace Control & Warning (Operational Training) Squadron (51 AC&W (OT) Sqn) during the 22 Wing Cares roadside stop held on Wednesday, December 11th, however, nothing could be farther from the truth! “Everyone loves to come out to support this initiative,” explains Major Andrew Lunn, Commanding Officer of 51 AC&W (OT) Sqn. With a full complement of instructors, students and staff in attendance – and even Santa - asking motorists to give generously to the North Bay Food Bank, they collected $2690.23 in donations and 1330 lbs of food for a total of 4020 lbs of food (1 dollar = 1 lb of food). The brain child of Tom Hedican, international renowned hockey coach, 51 AC&W (OT) Sqn’s Honorary Colonel emeritus and creator of Coach4Food in 2008, the program is now under the banner of My Team Cares and coordinated by Debbie and Heath Marson. 2019 marks the ninth year that 22 Wing has, once again, stepped up to support those in greatest need, showing North Bay how much we care.
